Here we have the inaugural whisky from Derby's White Peak Distillery! This beauty was mashed, fermented, distilled, and matured on-site, a full lifecycle at the Wire Works location that gives the distillery its name. It's made from a combination of both unpeated and peated malt, and benefits from a slow four-day fermentation and the use of fresh, live yeast from a local Derbyshire brewery to create a unique spirit profile, which is then accentuated by a combination of ex-bourbon and STR casks.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Chocolate-covered cinder toffee, vanilla, caramel, Caramac bars, candied ginger, orange peel, macadamia nuts, baked fruits, pear drops, icing sugar, glacé cherries, and lightly roasted coffee beans.
Dark chocolate, a flash of pepper, chilli across the tongue, roasted malt, orchard fruits, raisins, toffee apple, black forest gateaux, butterscotch, cigar box, sandalwood, and a wisp of smoke.
A long finish, with café mocha, chilli chocolate, liquorice all sorts and a final hint of peat.
